Dhardo Rimpoche...

In the FWBO tribute book to Dhardo, it's admitted that he could not speak English. Sangharakshita has said that he cannot speak Tibetan. What language did they communicate in? Pali? By telepathy? (Sorry, I phrased this a little badly, but it's an honest question).

Rimpoche's secretary, Jampel Kaldhen, was his usual translator, though other people also acted as intermediaries at various times. The translation process is mentioned several times in the book. Shantavira 12:14, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)
